MDR Sinfonieorchester & Dennis Russell Davies - Bruckner: Symphony No. 1 "Linz Version", WAB 101 (2026) [Hi-Res]

The MDR Symphony Orchestra Leipzig, under its chief conductor Dennis Russell Davies, presents Bruckner’s symphonies in their original first versions. The journey begins with his earliest symphonic sketches and extends to his monumental late works—an ambitious project that the orchestra is embarking on in collaboration with GENUIN. Listeners encounter the works in their overarching span while, in unprecedented fashion, drawing closer to every step along the path of their development. The series continues with monthly releases; the latest installment is Symphony No. 1 in C minor. Bruckner completed the original “Linz version” in 1866.
